The short answer is "Yes" and a longer answer follows. The OJS supports a REST-ful API. Given the root URL of an OJS system and an authorization token, I have written a set of Bash scripts which caches OJS issue metadata and optionally outputs rudimentary bibliographics in the form of a TSV stream. I have packaged this into a GitHub repository --> https://nam05.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fericleasemorgan%2Fojs-toolbox&data=02%7C01%7Cdouglas.duhaime%40yale.edu%7C6a65e6cb877d4638e50e08d75a2f840e%7Cdd8cbebb21394df8b4114e3e87abeb5c%7C0%7C0%7C637077032455501698&sdata=yvzm874F89eoPxv%2FDX%2Bkkt7Fd1HuYD81IWuNWrJvhW4%3D&reserved=0 Using the Toolbox, it is easy for me to create, for example, a simple bibliography of all LITA ITAL articles published since forever. There are at least 670 of them. Just closing a loop. -- Eric Lease Morgan
